''The Fifties'' (ISBN 9780679415596, 1993) is a historical account by David Halberstam about the decade of the 1950s in the United States. Rather than using a straightforward linear narrative, Halberstam separately tracks many of the notable trends and figures of the post-World War II era, starting with Harry Truman's stunning Presidential victory in 1948 against Thomas E. Dewey. Halberstam chronicles many political and cultural trends during the decade, including the beginnings of the Civil Rights Movement and the Cold War, the creation of rock and roll via the rise of Elvis Presley, the introduction of fast food and mass marketing via the rise of McDonald's, the Holiday Inn hotel chain, the transformation of General Motors into the center of new car culture through the work of designer Harley Earl, the beginnings of the sexual revolution with the creation of the birth control pill, and the beginnings of the American counterculture through the emergence of actors Marlon Brando and James Dean and Beat Generation writers Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg. The book ends with an account of the first televised debate between Richard Nixon and John Kennedy, serving as a prelude to the 1960s.
